I'm looking into doing this also...
You might want to investigate lprps, the source to it is explained in
the Steven's book on "Advanced C Programming in the UNIX Environment"
Chapter 17, I believe.
I am currently investigating this package as well as psf and Transcript 2.1
If anyone has input on this matter, I'd like to hear about it. I have a
choice of three types of systems to use for page accounting: Ultrix 4.2,
AIX 3.2.2, and a recently acquired SGI Crimson. Whichever one will work
most painlessly will probably get drafted for this duty :-)
